      Good while it lasted

      Pros

      Good benefits, good salary, enjoyed company culture, week off between Xmas and New Years (in advance) was a great perk.

      Cons

      At times the "work-life" balance was imbalanced towards work a bit too much, but this was typical for the industry and the job level. Step-wise layoff made for some slow and difficult times, but understandable given the situation.

      Great place to work with some drawbacks

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Friendly and helpful corporate culture, good products, company is a market leader or even a market dominator in many areas. Good sales, marketing and supporting structure. Very good facilities on site- great office, cantine, bar, free gym, free bikes. Stimulating to develop yourself and working on your weaknesses.

      Cons

      Carrer opportunities are limited. Sales experience is required to progress within organisation. Very sales driven affiliate, sometimes lack of strategy and concentrating on delivering numbers. Work-life balance is rather poor, it is expected of you constantly to take on new challenges and overachieve. Roche is not interested in keeping people regardles of your track record and seniority. Very hard training on Roche values, if you don't fit in, they will get rid of you rather quickly. If you wish to progress within organisation be prepared to move to Germany or Switzerland and learn German.
